"Thank You For Life"

“Thank You For Life”

They say when an opportunity comes your way you take it before someone else                           does.

And that opportunity is life. 

Street life, real life

Either street cred or a credible credit score

As i got older i realized those close friends of mine who i grew up with were slowly being consumed by the giant mouth of street credibility. 

On the other hand i fell into the caring arms of a concept introduced by my father. 

My father said expression was in my blood and that I was a lot smarter than he. 

But I never understood... 

My friends slowly fading away... 

I still don’t understand... 

Family members die and i still don’t understand... 

The pain kept me from doing so... 

But a concept that once faded away in my mind like a wave of a sea shore had resurrected like a still flame on a candle.

The concept from my father... 

The concept that saved me from street credibility 

Who knew that the father would save his son with the sound of a music note? 

 

 

Thank You.
